Chapter 70: The Chaos:
At this moment, Tang Chuan no longer appeared as calm as before.
His Wu Ling'er was being held in Su Changyu's hands!
How could his beloved be in someone else's hands?!
"Old Ming, kill him for me!" Tang Chuan exclaimed angrily.
However, Old Ming, who wanted to deal with Su Changyu, was stopped by Old Li. The two powerful individuals had already begun confronting each other.
With their divine powers colliding, runes filled the sky, scattering with each impact and emitting waves of destruction.
Amidst the surging force, floating lights sparkled, and enormous palms obscured the sky and appeared extremely terrifying.
If it weren't for the Bai family's formation protecting them, the entire mansion would have been blown off the ground.
At this moment, people in the Ancient City finally realized something had happened at the Bai family mansion.
The city had its rules: any grievances, whether through single combat or group battles, should be settled outside the city or in the arena.
Of course, these so-called rules were worthless in front of major family powers.
"It's the Bai family's experts!"
"Hiss... this aura... are two Heavenly Saint Realm Experts fighting?"
Powerful experts with formidable auras appeared in the sky.
Today was supposed to be a grand feast at the Golden Arena. But now, with such a thrilling battle between two Heavenly Saint Realm Experts, how could the arena's atmosphere compare?
Seeing the chaos ensued, the Bai family members were dumbfounded.
The family patriarch hurriedly ordered the family members to retreat and instructed the elders to maintain the formation to prevent being directly targeted by the big shots above.
"No... this can't be... how is this possible..."
Among the crowd, Bing Yao's face turned pale!
Her gaze didn't focus on the battle in the sky; instead, she fell on Su Changyu and Tang Chuan in the distance.
The former stood proudly, exuding an otherworldly aura, while the latter appeared disheveled, his eyes filled with hatred as if he wanted to devour Su Changyu.
Was this still the Tang Chuan who once stood high above and suppressed his peers?
Was this still the peerless Tang Chuan in her heart?
She looked at Su Changyu, remembered the conflict a few days ago, and her chest tightened.
"So, back then, he didn't escape but simply didn't care to prove anything to me."
"A person like him is worthy of me, Bing Yao."
Bing Yao's eyes lit up.
Although she had some conflicts with Su Changyu, they didn't directly clash. Moreover, given her relationship with Bai Suyue, she could get along with him, which meant that as long as the latter helped her, they could turn enemies into friends.
Furthermore, with her identity as the Holy Maiden of Jade Lake Sect, Su Changyu wouldn't refuse such a powerful ally!
On the other side, Su Changyu withdrew his gaze from the sky.
Old Li's cultivation was at the peak Heavenly Saint Realm. However, the expert behind Tang Chuan had a cultivation base that wasn't very different from his, so the battle in the sky wouldn't end quickly; the key lay with him.
Tang Chuan also realized this. He activated a technique, and the descending War Heaven Hammer immediately flew toward him. However, before it could reach him, Su Changyu grabbed it in midair.
"Suppress!"
Boom!
The hammer, weighing tens of thousands of pounds and emanating boundless power, was pressed to the ground by Su Changyu's palm, unable to move.
"You, Su Changyu!" Tang Chuan almost spat out blood again.
"What's wrong? Without this broken hammer, does this Ancient Moon Sect's Holy Son have any ability left?" Su Changyu said indifferently. "Also, why didn't you stop her from sacrificing back then? You should have already mastered the War Heaven Hammer, right? As long as you merge with it, killing your enemies would be effortless. Hmm, but the consequences would be severe, damaging your foundation, so you were unwilling, right?"
"You! You!" Tang Chuan's pupils suddenly dilated.
This matter shouldn't be known to anyone. How did Su Changyu know!?
"It seems that in your heart, any beloved woman is less important than your own future."
"But I can understand you. If I were in your position, I might have done the same. After all, if your foundation is damaged, your cultivation will decline, and the Ancient Moon Holy Son's position won't be yours anymore."
"How can a mere Moon Spirit Clan's demon girl compare to the Holy Son's position?"
The people around were all stunned.
"Is what the Holy Son Su said true?"
"I heard that Tang Chuan was indeed forced into a desperate situation before. If it weren't for the Moon Spirit Clan girl's sacrifice, he would probably have perished."
"It's rumored, but according to the Holy Son Su, the Ancient Moon Sect's Holy Son still had the strength to fight."
"What's there to talk about? A Moon Spirit Clan girl, compared to the Holy Son's position and the future, must choose the latter."
"I support the Ancient Moon Sect's Holy Son. He did nothing wrong!"
In the cultivation world, without strength and status, nothing else mattered.
However, before this, they heard Wu Ling had sacrificed herself to kill the enemy. Since then, Tang Chuan has been trying to find ways to resurrect Wu Ling. So, in the hearts of the Beiyang women, there was also the title of heroic Son.'
But now, if Su Changyu's statement was true, although most people also felt that Tang Chuan's choice was correct, his reputation was ruined entirely.
Su Changyu laughed heartily. "Holy Son of the Ancient Moon Sect, it seems everyone sides with you very well. I also think your choice is correct."
"Shut up! Shut up! It's not like what you said!"
Tang Chuan roared furiously and released his divine power.
A long, azure blue spear appeared in his hand, with tides surging on it, containing formidable ability.
Although this weapon wasn't as good as the War Heaven Hammer, it also was at the quasi-divine level.
However, his entire posture was no match for Su Changyu, who relied on the War Heaven Hammer, let alone now.
Su Changyu used his Qiankun Hand technique to slap it away, sending him flying again.
The gap was too huge!
He didn't even stand a chance!
Everyone could see that Su Changyu's strength had far surpassed Tang Chuan's current realm.
"So strong!" Bing Yao was once again shocked.
She could imagine that if Su Changyu wanted to kill her, it would probably only take one blow to end her life!
"If he helps me, I will definitely secure a top ten position in the Ancient Azura Battlefield this time. By then, with the Ten Thousand Year Ice Soul given by the Master, as long as I can refine it and condense the Cold Ice Domain, my strength will skyrocket!"
Bing Yao's heart was extremely clear.
[Bing Yao's mentality changed, and Tang Chuan's luck was damaged. Obtained 200 villain points]
As for Tang Chuan on the other side, he had already lost hope.
[Tang Chuan's mentality has been damaged, obtained 200 villain points]
Huh?
Only 200 villain points?
Su Changyu felt a bit dissatisfied.
He had stirred up such a big storm. Wouldn't he be more harvest?
As for Bing Yao, she was just the topping on the cake for the female lead, far from being as satisfying as pulling the male lead.
Watching Tang Chuan struggling to stand up, Su Changyu walked over to him and chucked lightly. "I understand. You want to use the Source Fire to resurrect Wu Ling, thinking it's a good way to enhance your strength, right? The Moon Spirit Clan is a mysterious race. Their spirit rings can enhance one's strength through sacrifice, and there are no side effects."
Tang Chuan's body trembled.
"And you, as long as you shout, 'Rise, my beloved!' She will willingly give everything to you again... Tsk tsk~ it's so simple. I'm tempted myself. I'll go find a Moon Spirit Clan woman later."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Su Changyu chuckled.
The latter part might be speculation, but the original novel did mention that Tang Chuan could have used a secret technique to defeat the enemy but he hesitated.
Su Changyu smiled softly, "Whether it's nonsense or not, you know best."
"How did you know all this? What else do you know?"
"Heh~ it seems I was right."
"What about it?" Tang Chuan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You know all this, but it won't affect me unless you kill me, but you won't dare. If you really try to kill me, the Ancient Moon Sect won't let you leave Beiyang alive!"
Although he was severely injured, even on the verge of madness, his mind was still clear.
He knew Su Changyu wouldn't dare kill him. Otherwise, he would have been dead just now.
As soon as he finished speaking, the white rabbit in Su Changyu's hand suddenly emitted silver-white light.
